Over £10k for a rotten C1 that needs full restoration.

Thanks guys, looking forward to collecting the car. I am going to get the badges but hold off from putting them on.

Back on the subject, from E30/E34 greatness :). We have upgraded (or downgraded according to the Mrs) from the X5 to an Alpina B3-BiTurbo #133. We were in two minds as the X5 is flexible (apart from the M sport suspension) and great for driving to see the outlaws in France. After driving the B3, we ...

Makes sense for the snow to be out of the way, before the putting the new tyres.

Sounds like the car is getting a treat over Easter!

Did anyone here own this car or know of this car?

I think you have seen more of the car than me!

A few more picture updates. Hopefully it should be ready for Spring! https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4794/38953567120_e3189ed1ce_c.jpg https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4783/38954513660_8791b73eb6_c.jpg https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4773/39868970775_b73cc98c81_c.jpg https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4779/...

Are there figures on how many RHD F30 tourings were produced?

I assume there will be a high depreciation to stomach over the next few years?

If the gearbox needs any work on mine, I would definitely consider swapping it to a manual. Your car is going to be great!

Thanks for your advice guys. I have spent fair bit to bring it up to scratch, including the full gearbox rebuild, suspension and bodywork. I will hold on to it as I will struggle to buy another Alpina touring, I missed that boat with the E30s! I will get a few niggling items sorted and just drive it...

It's worth about £4million, with the price of the B3S a little higher. Not that I have a conflict of interests when it comes to a high price ..... :D I must be mad to sell it then, imagine the price in a few years. :D Keep it in your collection and buy f30 That’s what I am thinking, maybe store ...

There's no photo's available on that project thread any more :roll: I need to really update the photos when I get time. :oops: Old but still looks great after a good clean! I may need try the F30 Alpinas before I decide. https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4786/39795612005_f64eb34093_c.jpg ,

I am considering upgrading from my E46 B3 Touring to something newer. I am not using it so much as I commute on the tube everyday and the Mrs not too keen on "old cars". We are thinking of upgrading it to something like a F30 D3 or ideally B3. Would I regret selling the E46 B3 Touring (#113) in the ...

Barry located a nearly new Fritz Bitz stainless exhaust which will be fitted until I can source something original. A few more pics of the engine work, unfortunately all the photo uploads are not really in the right sequence of work. https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4572/38114050014_830c834b49_c.jpg I...

The photobucket fiasco has left me tired of updating all the pics but I have gone back and changed the links. A few more update below, its getting there. https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4531/26987747119_8b330bfbd3_c.jpg IMG_8852 https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4580/26987747759_9cdf3a940f_c.jpg IMG_885...
